The Top 10 Most Pathetic Sports Journalists

We are creating a list of the Top 10 Most Pathetic Sports Journalists and are will carry the torch on to include regular journalists among other categories like sports figures, talking heads, etc...

So here we go...

At first we will just list the top ten and then decide (or possibly put it to a vote - though this editor reserves the right to vote as many times as needed to ensure the right people are on the lists in their correct order.)

Frank Fitzpatrick - a Philadelphia idiot that apparently thinks people care a rat's ass what he thinks...btw Frank...we don't.

Dana O'Neil - from ESPiN - Dana likes to write myopic articles w/o research and w/o informing her readers about other people or programs doing precisely what she rants about; but she has her puppies and wants to keep them clean. (I.E. she's just another biased pontificating windbag that doesn't have an objective bone in her body.)

(((Editor's Note: The statement directly above can be repeated for almost anyone on this list; which is why, of course, they are on this list in the first place.)))

Pat Fordeee - also from ESPiN - Pat likes to jump the gun on reports, pointing and wagging his fingers as if he as clean as a whistle then when the facts come out he is no where to be found. Case in point: The NCAA send the University of Memphis a letter about their GIRLS GOLF TEAM that includes two POTENTIAL sanctions against its men's basketball team only ONE of which is even POTENTIALLY major and NONE of which does the NCAA even hint or suggest that their former coach knew anything about. In fact, the NCAA was blatantly clear that the Memphis Tigers' former coach was NOT in jeopardy of ANY sanctions whatsoever b/c their investigation found no wrong-doing on his part. Yet, Fordeee, and many others in the highly respected world of sports journalism (<--- Notice the hint of sarcasm?), jump the shark but, to the enjoyment of the audience, fell right into the shark's mouth! (And the audience yelled, "YEAH!!!")

Those are our first three. Feel free to comment.
NOTE: i will be moving this forum/blog to another 'site'...i.e. creating a new one w/ another more appropriate name soon.

Please add more names and suggestions for "The Most Pathetic Sports Writers of 2009".

All my Best!
